The Wallace and Ladmo Show

Within a year, Ladimir Kwiatkowski (who had been a cameraman for the station) joined the show as Ladmo, the rubber-faced sidekick to Wallace.

In 1960, Pat McMahon joined the cast and developed a list of characters (such as Gerald, Aunt Maud, Captain Super and Marshall Good) that parodied various popular culture icons.

KAZT-TV (Channel 7.1 in Prescott and Phoenix) has periodically aired reruns of The Wallace and Ladmo Show.

Prior to this, children who were winners of one of the many ongoing contests run by the program, were invited on the show to pick a prize from the "Toy Cottage".

Wallace credits Pat McMahon with coming up with the idea, of putting items from the show's sponsors in a bag, and giving that to the winner instead.

They were paper grocery bags filled with candy, potato chips, cans of soda, assorted coupons and so on.

Although Kwiatkowski died on Wednesday March 2, 1994, select people attending events like the Arizona State Fair would still win Ladmo bags as recently as 2014.
